Given any positive integer n, it is well known that there always exist triangles with rational sides a, b and c such that the area of the triangle is n. Assuming finiteness of the Shafarevich-Tate group, we first construct a family of…

We give explicit formulas for the number of distinct elliptic curves over a finite field, up to isomorphism, in the families of Legendre, Jacobi, Hessian and generalized Hessian curves.

Suppose $\mathcal{X}$ is an $n$-correct set of nodes in the plane, that is, it admits a unisolvent interpolation with bivariate polynomials of total degree less than or equal to $n.$ Then an algebraic curve $q$ of degree $k\le n$ can pass…

If $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over a quadratic field $K$, and the $j$-invariant of $E$ is not 0 or 1728, then $E(\mathbf{Q}^{\ab})$ has infinite rank. If $E$ is an elliptic curve in Legendre form, $y^2 = x(x-1)(x-\lambda)$, where…

Given a smooth cubic hypersurface $X$ over a finite field of characteristic greater than 3 and two generic points on $X$, we use a function field analogue of the Hardy-Littlewood circle method to obtain an asymptotic formula for the number…

For a square-free integer $N$, we present a procedure to compute $\mathbb{Q}$-curves parametrized by rational points of the modular curve $X_0^*(N)$ when this is hyperelliptic.

This article addresses the existence of $\Q$-rational periodic points for morphisms of projective space. In particular, we construct an infinitely family of morphisms on $\P^N$ where each component is a degree 2 homogeneous form in $N+1$…

For a given genus $g \geq 1$, we give lower bounds for the maximal number of rational points on a smooth projective absolutely irreducible curve of genus $g$ over ${\mathbb F}_q$. As a consequence of Katz-Sarnak theory, we first get for any…

We study the elliptic curve $E_a: (ax+1)y^2+(ax+1)(x-1)y+x^2-x=0$, which we call the geometric normal form of an elliptic curve. We show that any elliptic curve whose $j$-invariant is real is isomorphic to a curve $E_a$ in geometric normal…

This article considers the family of elliptic curves given by $E_{pq}: y^2=x^3-5pqx$ and certain conditions on odd primed $p$ and $q$. More specifically, we have proved that if $p \equiv 33 \pmod {40}$ and $ q \equiv 7 \pmod {40}$, then the…

Let $C_k$ be a smooth projective curve over a global field $k$, which is neither rational nor elliptic. Harris-Silverman, when $p=0$, and Schweizer, when $p>0$ together with an extra condition on the Jacobian variety…

We count the number of rational elliptic curves of bounded naive height that have a rational $N$-isogeny, for $N \in \{2,3,4,5,6,8,9,12,16,18\}$. For some $N$, this is done by generalizing a method of Harron and Snowden. For the remaining…

Given a positive rational $q$, we consider Dyck paths having height at most two with some constraints on the number of consecutive peaks and consecutive valleys, depending on $q$. We introduce a general class of Dyck paths, called rational…

In this work, we investigate hyperelliptic curves of type $C: y^2 = x^{2g+1} + ax^{g+1} + bx$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q, q = p^n, p > 2$. For the case of $g = 3$ and $4$ we propose algorithms to compute the number of points on the…

We investigate the rank gain of elliptic curves, and more generally, Jacobian varieties, over non-Galois extensions whose Galois closure has Galois group permutation-isomorphic to a prescribed group $G$ (in short, "$G$-extensions"). In…

It was conjectured by Flynn that there exists a constant $\kappa$ such that, for any integer $g \ge 2$, any $m \le \kappa g$, there exists a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g$ over $\mathbb Q$ with a rational $m$-torsion point on its…

Consider the elliptic curves given by $ E_{n,\theta}:\quad y^2=x^3+2s n x^2-(r^2-s^2) n^2 x $ where $0 < \theta< \pi$, $\cos(\theta)=s/r$ is rational with $0\leq |s| <r$ and $\gcd (r,s)=1$. These elliptic curves are related to the…

We obtain a recursive formula for the number of rational degree $d$ curves in $\mathbb{CP}^2$ that pass through $3d+1-m$ generic points and that have an $m$-fold singular point. The special case of counting curves with a triple point was…

In this paper, we consider two infinite parametric families of elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ given by the equations $E_{a,b} : y^{2} = x^{3} - a^{2}x + b^{2}$ and $E^{\prime}_{a,b} : y^{2} = x^{3} - a^{2}x + b^{6}$, where $a,b…

We study a natural question in the Iwasawa theory of algebraic curves of genus $>1$. Fix a prime number $p$. Let $X$ be a smooth, projective, geometrically irreducible curve defined over a number field $K$ of genus $g>1$, such that the…
